Walker Payne, a divorced ex-con and deadbeat dad, doesn’t have much going for him. About all he's got is his loyal best friend, a pit bull named Brute. Out of a job and scraping bottom, Walker is given one shot, a chance to turn his life around, but the cost will be high...maybe higher than any decent man can bear. An all-star cast featuring Jason Patric, (In the Valley of Elah), Drea de Matteo (TV's The Sopranos), KaDee Strickland (American Gangster), Sam Shepard (The Assassination of Jesse James) and Bruce Dern (Monster) fuels this intense, gritty drama.
